Forgotten was Bennett's own assessment of Trump in May 2020:
Israel has never had a friend like Donald Trump. But it cannot guarantee that of his successors. His bold peace vision creates new possibilities that we believe should be pursued-but not at any price.
Taking flight from – rather than fighting for – Bennett's own and Trump's carefully crafted proposals to provide Israel with secure, defensible and recognized borders – is not in Israel's national interests.

Kowtowing to Biden and jettisoning Trump does not augur well for Bennett's coalition Government or Israel.
